high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 401094

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- Race condition in the worker_update_monitors_config function in SPICE 0.12.4 allows a remote authenticated
guest user to cause a denial of service (heap-based memory corruption and QEMU-KVM crash) or possibly
execute arbitrary code on the host via unspecified vectors. (CVE-2015-3247)

- Heap-based buffer overflow in SPICE before 0.12.6 allows guest OS users to cause a denial of service
(heap-based memory corruption and QEMU-KVM crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code on the host via QXL
commands related to the surface_id parameter. (CVE-2015-5260)

- Heap-based buffer overflow in SPICE before 0.12.6 allows guest OS users to read and write to arbitrary
